I know we are all supposed to be above image and aesthetics in this scene but does anybody else think that sometimes a really good promo image of a band/artist can convince you to check out their stuff? I think so. Infact I know so because i've often gone and checked out bands based on a really arty image i've seen of them. Not many of us can pretend that we purely like Black Metal based on the music alone. A good photo can convince me to take the time to listen to an artists work. Do you know any really good images of musicians? Wether its just a photograph of the band, staged or just playing live, or an image created by another artist. I'd like to see it. Recently I came across Karin Dreijer Andersson's (member of The Knife) solo project Fever Ray. To be honest the album turned out to be massively ovverated but I have to confess that one of the reasons I took any notice to begin with was due to some of the fantastic photography she (and others) put out to promote her work. by Johan Renck by David Edwards for NME.

Anything with Morttis in it. He has a rubber nose and this appeals to me.

good timing belly. i was about to post this in a new thread but may as well stick it here:
please vote for my story to be published in the mag! it's a tiny "story" (basically just some blurb and a few photos) outlining my work as a photographer for ZT.
hope you enjoy the shots.
ps. i like that work a lot. thanks for the heads-up.

Talking of Negura Bunget, anyone seen this? Thats the heart of the band gone, I wonder if they'll ever reach such high peaks again?

Whenever I see animal skins I can't help but think of Victor Man and his lovely exhibition at the IKON last year. [/gay art rant over]

http://www.alexyork.co.uk/aliveI really like the first Scythian photograph in your gallery Gives the image a real yet psychedelic sense of movement. Like Tetsuo hallucinating that his guts are spilling out.
